Fancast Emmy Watch: The Ratings

Last night’s Emmys suffered the second lowest ratings ever for the award show, averaging 13.1 million viewers. By contrast, last year’s telecast averaged 16.2 million and CBS pulled in 18.7 million viewers two years ago.

The 18-49 demographic was even worse, as the Emmys’ 4.3/11 (rating/share) was demolished by NBC’s Sunday Night Football (San Diego Chargers at New England Patriots) which drew a 6.7/17.
